I’ve been under the impression that Obama was talking to Micheal Chiklis from The Shield (and The Commish). Turns out that it was Joe the Plumber… who seemed far too insignificant for me to even acknowledge during the race. Had I known that’s who this guy was, I would have had an assortment of jokes [...]

Numerology.

I’ve been talking about this all day. It’s a grim proposition. Professor Bainbridge agrees and lays out some interesting points and a move I’d love to see the GOP make, but as I have said earlier today, doubt any of it will happen. Then again, enough of the GOP has been displaced -if they want [...]

Uhm, just read it yourself.

Can Libertarians and Conservatives get over Bush? To quote one of the first comments I saw: Go fuck yourselves. Repeatedly. Pretty much right. I did like Huckabee for supporting the FairTax, though.

If there was one single thing that clenched this election for Obama, it was McCain’s choice of VP. It probably gave him an extra 5-8% by polarizing the election with the whole ‘real america’ vs. ‘fake america’. A lot of people were offended and I don’t think she would have been such a poor choice… [...]

I just found out over the last weekend that our local Barnes&Noble closed down. I had no idea that was even going to happen had even been there for a coffee and browsing about a month ago. I know that they’re not doing so hot right now and are looking at a terrible xmas season, [...]
